2012 Leaf SL - First attempt at light photography

I have been throwing around the idea of light painting for the past 6 months. Finally decided to give it a try last night on my 2012 Leaf. Basic info: Canon 60D, Sigma 18 to 50 f2.8 lens but taken with f20 stop and longest possible exposure. I used two different sets of LED flashlights to create the effects. No post-picture processing at all. These are just uploaded to facebook so excuse the poorer image quality.

Nice! These were taken outdoors? Was it pitch black/overcast? When you say "longest possible exposure", how long?

(Sorry for all the questions, but this is something I've been meaning to try as well).

The photos were taken outdoors at night. It was in a provincial park so there were no lights around. My exposure ran 32 seconds and I was at F22 aperture.
